Page 1: Section 3-3 The Addition Rule. Addition Rule – “or” The probability that A or B. One event Mutually Exclusive: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

Section 3-3

The Addition Rule

Page 2: Section 3-3 The Addition Rule. Addition Rule – “or” The probability that A or B. One event Mutually Exclusive: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

Addition Rule – “or”

The probability that A or B.One eventMutually Exclusive:

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

Page 3: Section 3-3 The Addition Rule. Addition Rule – “or” The probability that A or B. One event Mutually Exclusive: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

Mutually Exclusive events – two events that cannot happen at the same time

What is the probability of rolling a number on a die less than 3 or more than 3?

Example #1

A golf ball is selected at random from a golf bag. If the golf bag contains 9 Titleists, 8 Maxflis, and 3 Top-flites, find the probability…

a. A golf ball is a Titleist or Maxfli.b. A golf ball is a Maxfli or Top-Flite.c. A golf ball is not a Top-Flite.

Example 2

A standard deck of cards contains 52 cards. One card is randomly selected from the deck. What is the probability..

a. Of randomly selecting a heart or club.

b. Of randomly selecting a 5,6, or 7.

Not Mutually Exclusive – Two events that can happen at the same time, two events that have something in common

Mutually Exclusive or

Not Mutually Exclusive?

S = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}E = {2,3,4,5,6,7} F = {5,6,7,8,9}G = {9,10,11,12} H = {2,3,4}

1. Are E and F mutually exclusive?2. Are F and G mutually exclusive?3. Are E and G mutually exclusive?4. Are F and H mutually exclusive?

Addition Rule – “or”

The probability that A or B.One eventNot Mutually Exclusive:

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B)

Page 9: Section 3-3 The Addition Rule. Addition Rule – “or” The probability that A or B. One event Mutually Exclusive: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

Randomly select an individual who is either male or wearing black

NOT mutually exclusive because some (2) of the males are black …

Roll a Die …

Find the probability of rolling an even number or a number greater than 3.
